Eagles’ late rally fall short in road loss

Uşak Sportif 85-83 Beşiktaş Integral Forex

Despite holding a healthy 32-14 lead after the opening quarter, the Eagles failed to prevent their hosts from chipping away at the deficit and trailed 63-61 going into the final stanza. Thanks to Lofton’s three-pointers, they managed to crawl within 80-79 with a minute left in regulation time, but their late assault was in vain as the home side escaped with a narrow win. Chris Lofton had a team-high 25 points for Beşiktaş.
